The Provincial Small Cause Courts (Repeal) Act, 2024
Civil20242 sections
This Act formally terminates the validity of the *Provincial Small Cause Courts Act, 1887*, ending the operation of these historic courts under that specific legislation. By repealing the old statute, it removes the legal framework that previously governed civil disputes below a certain monetary limit in the provinces. Crucially, it protects the continuity of the legal system by ensuring that its repeal does not retroactively invalidate any rights, pending proceedings, debts, or obligations—effectively "grandfathering" all existing legal situations and duties incurred before its implementation.
